Indiana 61 and New Harmony Road/Shelton Road intersection opened after being closed for about two months to allow the Indiana Department of Transportation to build a roundabout.

That roundabout, along with two more, is part of the Indiana 61 Boonville Bypass construction.

"Roundabouts are designed to reduce potential crash points within an intersection and improve the flow of traffic," Indiana State Police Sgt. Todd Ringle said in a news release. "They also reduce crashes involving injuries and fatalities, according to Indiana Department of Transportation."

• Slow down and stay in your lane• Yield to vehicles already in the roundabout• Obey one-way signs at all times• When traffic is clear, merge to the right and continue to stay in your lane• Continue through the roundabout until you reach your exit point• Avoid stopping in a roundabout• Yield to pedestrians and bicycles when there is a crosswalk• When exiting, signal and exit to the right• Left turns are completed by circling around the center island and then making a right turn to exit.
